    Yeah, that’s life. Any of us could die in a accident tomorrow, or get cancer or a million other things.

    There are no gaurantees in life. And searching for them is a surefire path to misery and failure at life.

    Nobody can predict the future, some people get lucky and some people get screwed.

    And some people make really bad choices despite everyone in their life trying to prevent them from doing so.

    The problem is many folks refuse to take responsibility for themselves and their choices and change their lives. They would rather double-down and wallow in their misery and lament that the ‘system’ failed them or needs to save them. Because you know, if that’s how you think, nothing is ever your personal fault, therefore you never have to change anything.

      Yeah but it still sucks when a 10 year old is hit by a car, so there’s at least some nuance to it
